About Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End: What the hell is this, MyFace? You mess with MiMi, you mess with ME! #NuffSaid khassandras@gmail.com My MC 2015 fantasy wish list (48,007) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End (Saturday 22 November 2014; 3:07) PREFACE I started out wanting to make or update my previous wish list to realizing that I'm not really that hung up on Mariah accomplishing more than she already has. That's not to say that I will not celebrate in her future commercial endeavors, obviously. Just that it's not as important as being truly spiritually fulfilled. I wish that for myself and I pray that for other people that I love and even people I don't know or have a natural liking for. I understand that not everybody is going to get why I feel the need to post this but I would reference Mariah's own expressed Faith and core beliefs and desires since the world first heard 'Vision of Love'. This is who she has always been striving to become. I recently reread Her autobiography: 'The Meaning of Mariah Carey' and these are some of the thoughts I came away with: "Hopes, Dreams, Wishes, and Prayers for Mariah Carey: 1. Spiritual Fulfillment - That she continues to nurture her relationship with God, leaning on Him for guidance, peace, and joy in all aspects of her life. 2. A Godly Marriage - That she finds a partner who shares her faith, values, and desire to honor God in their union. 3. Healing and Restoration - That the scars from her past—whether from childhood or past relationships—are fully healed, allowing her to live with peace and joy unshaken by old wounds. 4. Authentic Love and Support - That she surrounds herself with people who truly love, respect, and support her for who she is, beyond her celebrity persona. 5. Grace to Be Human - That she is shown grace and understanding by others, allowing her to make mistakes, grow, and evolve without judgment or undue criticism. 6. Freedom from Worldly Pressures - That she finds liberation from the entertainment industry’s materialistic and superficial values, allowing her to fully embrace her God-given identity. 7. Purposeful Legacy - That she continues to use her platform and music to inspire others and share the presence of God, as she has done through her Christmas albums and other works. 8. A Loving and Faith-Centered Family - That her family relationships, including with her children, remain strong, loving, and centered on mutual faith and respect. 9. Unwavering Faith - That she remains steadfast in her faith, even when faced with life’s challenges, and continues to be a beacon of hope for others. 10. Divine Guidance - That she discerns God’s will in her decisions, whether in her personal life or professional endeavors, and trusts His plan for her. " In Jesus Almighty name, Amen.

Nikki at Andy's left side (47,990) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I couldn't agree more with your post. Mariah has earned the right to decide when and when not to be asked questions about other female artists. Notice I don't use the word singer as that term is used as loosely as diva these days. It's not Mariah's problem if other female artists wants to talk about her indiscriminately. Mariah's team has seen Andy's show, as she herself has, I'm sure. WWHL is a complete and total messfest if any of you don't know. MC kept it classy as always but still delivered with her classic Eminem shade. Lol. That moment has been gifed and hung up on the Shade Hall of Fame just like "I don't know her". What more do people want? BTW which Aussie girl are you talking about, aside from Kylie Minogue, that has talked about Mariah? (Thursday 20 November 2014; 23:36)

Matt Fishel - "Oh Santa!" Roc & Roe version (47,972) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I'm usually disappointed by Mariah covers. Firstly because the vocal delivery is almost always like bad careyoke but especially production wise. This guy, Matt Fishel, is one of very few who actually made a Mariah song his own. I just love it. I hope she's heard this rendition. Enjoy. (Wednesday 19 November 2014; 7:28)

St Nick and the Apologists (47,970) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I apologise, I take it all back. None of the songs on MIAMTEC are about Nick, especially not Thirsty. Just like Mariah never wrote about Tommy, Derek or Luis in any of her lyrics. And Nick only meant to add forever to his Mariah tattoo, not cover it up into oblivion. Mariah never sang "And I know you cheated motherf*****" in Tokyo. Nick's crude appearance on Big Boy's radio show never aired on 3/27, Mariah's Anniversary. Nor did he continue to disrespect her on Howard Stern a few days later or reveal how he came up because of the women he slept with. James Cannon never posted anything on Facebook that began with "Here a thing" right after Nick never leaked to a friend in the media that he and Mariah were separated. Nick never deleted his Instagram or tweet how Thirsty was his favourite song. In fact, everything is so great between Mariah and Nick, the only reason they are getting a divorce is so they can get married again. That's why they didn't renew their vows this year, everyone does it now. A remarriage is much more original. In fact, that's Mariah's big 2015 announcement. Coming soon, to a reality TV near you. (Wednesday 19 November 2014; 3:42)

Adam and the thirsty one (47,958) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Calling Thirsty out on his ish is hardly bashing him. The only reason I even care enough about what he has to say is because he habitually makes Mariah look bad all the while proclaiming his undying love for her. He's the consumate poster child for passive aggressive behaviour. The way he gleefully talks about Mariah like she's just another notch on his belt. Not even Eminem at his most delusional can top the soundbites Thirsty has made part of YouTube canon. He's the real slim shady. He also uses other people as proxies to cast doubt on Mariah as a parent. Why? Maybe that doesn't bother you but I'm not here for that and never will be. So you're wasting your time if you think I care what someone who stans for Tommy and Walter wants me to post about. I love how you think the only reference to Thirsty on MIAMTEC is thirsty. What about Cry, Faded, Money, MILG, Camouflage, OMT, BGK, IAW? In fact I'd venture to say the only songs not inspired, even tangentially, by Thirsty are #Beautiful and Dedicated. But whatever makes you sleep at night I guess. (Tuesday 18 November 2014; 5:39)

Nikki and Thirsty (47,938) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Thirsty is in fact very vindictive. Why else would he be on Big Boy's tabloid show giving lip about his stareffing on Mariah's birthday? I mean, he couldn't have picked any other day to group his wife in with all the women he sexed, just because? It's not the false and negative rumours about Mariah that ping the alarm. It's how pristine Thirsty always comes across in those same stories. Thirsty is the real jumpoff, all the women he's bedded are more famous than he is, even after Mariah woke up and smelled the desperation disguised as her spiritual soulmate. Mariah doesn't realise how much personal information there is about her online and in her music. She writes her own songs for crying out loud. She might as well have published her diary in some cases. Thirsty just did his research and played the right beats. We all know Mariah is very spiritual, she makes it a point to write gospel influenced songs on every album since her debut. Mimi is fiercely protective of her inner child and is attracted to that quality in others. She's made a conscious habit of not being promiscuous. Unfortunately these and other personal things are public knowledge for anyone to use in order to get close to her. BTW, from where did you get the ludicrous idea that Mariah has always wanted a man to "help" and take care of? And how was Thirsty going to better her career in any way? He was supposed to be her husband and the father to her kids, not her manager. (Sunday 16 November 2014; 19:34)

Mimi's idol, Aretha Franklin, was spilling insider tea back in 2012 (47,912) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End It would seem Mariah was the last to know about Mr Thirsty and his idea of privacy. Queen Aretha all but spells it out in this clip at 02:25. Do you now see how integral Thirsty was and still is to all the noxious rumours that have been swirling around Mariah since 2011? How does someone of Mariah's stature and constitution fight soundbites originating from the one person presumably closest to her? Thirsty is a snake that slithered his way into her life for little more than a come up. Why else would he suddenly get that giant tattoo of her name on his back, nearly go broke buying her a diamond engagement ring mere weeks into their courtship, propose in the most grandiose of ways and get her to marry him after no more than six weeks of dating? Funny how tight lipped Thirsty was back then, to the point where his own family didn't know he was even on the same planet as Mariah, days after they were "secretly" married. He obviously knew "here a thing", for one, couldn't handle it. Funny how Mariah's people never had that problem. Every disgusting piece of tabloid and blog garbage that is mass reported about Mariah can be directly linked to Thirsty and his camp being the main source. I honestly can't wait for MC to have a nice Caribbean vacation after her Jazz festival gig in Jamaica. In fact, she should go island hopping, and if she happens to land on the Dominican isles for a fortnight, well, all the better. (Friday 14 November 2014; 20:58)

Nathaniel on Australian radio about touring with Mariah (47,895) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End His 5 minutes part comes on at the tail end of the 11/11 podcast from today. Unlike a certain Buffon, Nathaniel was very sweet and professional when he spoke of his experience. I hope he gets more international exposure. His tone is very pleasing to the ear. Who knew he could hold his own so effortlessly on a song as sacred as OSD? I don't know if even Trey has ever attempted that. Mariah even sang her parts a lot differently than I've ever heard, probably because she was responding to Nathaniel's foreign musicality. I really want them to do a proper duet in the studio. Hot tamale. (Tuesday 11 November 2014; 21:09)

Mariah the boss (47,888) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Mariah does best when she trusts her own inner voice and keeps her faith as a compass when things get rocky. She didn't sell her songs during those early days before Warner and Sony were fighting to sign her, even though she was a dirty poor, hungry and desperate 18 year old girl. Why? Because she knew her worth as a singer songwriter and was confident enough, thank God, to trust that her vision of love would come to be. Going with her passion has paid off more often than not. M's worst decisions seem to come about from letting outside pressures into her head. That's why her being without a manager right now is a good thing IMO. It's going to force her to figure out what she really wants out of her life at this point, streamline it if you will. The longer MC is without a manager, the better. Being the boss of her own enterprises will do her a world of good as well as those who work for her. Them being directly accountable to her, even for a short period of time is always going to be a good thing. Keeps everybody on their toes. Mimi deserves to be happy with her children, live a full, passionate and long life with a man who loves her for the real person she is, and dembabies too, as genuinely as she will love them. Mariah's never going to give up making music, fingers crossed, and she doesn't owe me, or anyone else for that matter, anything. She's already given the public her all for close to 25 years. Now is the perfect time for us lambs to pay her back with our loyalty. (Monday 10 November 2014; 14:55)

Reuben, Across 110th street (47,886) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End It's Bobby Womack's signature song. He passed away just this June and so I guess Mariah's paying him tribute in that way. Remember: "If you think you're lonely now" (wait until tonight, girl) from WBT? That was his other song she played homage to along with Babyface's: "I only think of you" (on two occasions). R I.P. You are missed. (Monday 10 November 2014; 10:51)

Walter Afanasieff joins the cast of "Dead To Me" (47,863) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Walter is a douche sexist. He's illiterate to boot. According to him and his yes-men and radio-sycophants, Mariah makes up words like "emblazoned" in the lyrics she writes for her songs. I literally have no words. Who wants to bet he'd be singing to a different tune if Mariah was dumb or desperate enough to let him back in her life? You Wally fangurls need to retire your campaign because this man can only hurt Mariah. He is not pure of heart. All of his so called "tough-love" advise for Mariah is slanderous, belittling, patronizing and just evidences how much he has no respect for her as a full human being. Any shallow regard this idiot has for her is completely anchored in what she can do for him and probably has always been. He's a fairweather friend at best and that's being generous. This backstabber was a Tommy Mottola proxy and by the looks and sounds of it, he wants those days back. He is now as dead to me as dinosaur bones. (Sunday 9 November 2014; 4:39)

Bill and Emotions (47,855) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Can you believe Mariah might be even better when she finally makes it over here? I am so excited. Also, if you listen closely at the 03:40 whistles, you can hear her harmonising with herself. I don't think I've heard her do that since AIYM on the debut album. It's like an angel couldn't help but sing along or something. Mariah's voice is anointed. No god, real or imagined, would ever take that away as long as she cherishes her gift. Thankfully, Mariah's already hip to that. (Saturday 8 November 2014; 15:04)

The elusive chanteuse completly and totally slayes Emotions live Adelaide (47,848) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End This is Mariah's best rendition of Emotions this side of heaven in a long time. When will insert your lesser faves? Run and tell that. I am 100% done with humouring anyone who dares call themselves any variety of lamb who dismisses a moment like this but goes on tangents for days on end over 00:16 second clips of questionable origin. I'm gonna keep relying on my lying eyes and so so def ears. "Miss Mod" better get her act all the way together and bring it to Europe next year. Or, I will hunt her down. That's all I know. (Saturday 8 November 2014; 0:33)

The Elusive Chanteuse Show Shanghai Concert in total (47,818) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End This might be my favourite Chinese show sonically. I'll die if Mariah doesn't bring the Elusive tour to Europe next year. And I'll die just the same if she does. It is what it is I guess. Fly like a bird, take to the sky and land on my continent. Please God, make it happen. (Wednesday 5 November 2014; 23:42)

H.A.T.E.U. video clip Vevo exclusive (47,817) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I screamed when I saw this. What in the ham sandwich? Our girl Mimi is about to slay your life. I can't even, I just cannot. I can't. Let me go bow down in awe while the rest of you catch up. (Wednesday 5 November 2014; 22:56)

The Elusive Chanteuse Show live in Beijing (47,811) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End This is the full concert. It looks really, really good, I'm listening to it right now. Thank God for the lambs who took the time to film these concerts in their entirety because snippets will never do the wonder that is MC's voice justice. Lamb for life. (Wednesday 5 November 2014; 11:45)

Wally's world: we just live in it (47,807) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Some posters, all over these internets, need their lamb passes revoked because the love for Walter has reached mythical proportions at this point. Even Tommy has a fan following for heaven's sake. Never mind the misery Mariah called her life back then. Let's make her go back to abusive and emotionality taxing relationships because we want the elusive #19. Talk about sacrificial lambs. (Tuesday 4 November 2014; 22:48)

Her. She Is Mariah... The Exquisite Mermaid (47,806) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End And what? When will your lesser faves? Mariah is so ready to slay all of those thirsty ho-ho-hos it's not even fair. Teen Nick Cannot even know what to say. Fool. (Tuesday 4 November 2014; 22:26)

These are a few of my favourite things: JLo who? (47,776) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Mariah just liked the "I don't know her" gif on Instagram and we love it because we use it all the time. For the nostalgia. (Monday 3 November 2014; 17:48)

Musical parallels of MC/MJ (47,771) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Mariah Carey is to Walter Afanasieff what Michael Jackson was and still is to Quincy Jones. It doesn't mean that either producer isn't a valuable part of these legendary artist's life work. But, there is a limit to how much credit they can take for the musical and intellectual properties that are the basis of MC and MJ's successes. At a certain point it starts looking less like professional and artistic pride and more like resentment, rather unnecessarily too, since no one is or has disputed their contributions to the legacies of MC and MJ. Especially not the artists themselves. So the question is: Why do you want a big parade only where Mariah is concerned Walter? I don't even think he gets how annoying it must be for her that he continuously muddies the waters every time he does an interview and their writing partnership comes up. Imagine the conversations he's had in private, in the industry, at parties or wherever. Yet Mariah still has to make sure people know that she writes and produces all of her own songs, every chance she gets, 26 years in the game. Why do you think she does that, for her health? So even though Mariah is probably completely over whatever caused their falling out, she will never work with Walter again. Walter was the one who turned his back on their friendship and partnership. He chose to stick with Tommy. Sorry, but you had your chance. (Monday 3 November 2014; 14:09)

Travon et alia for AYNAF record (47,758) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End TY. But, to be fair, it's not really my own original idea that our Mariah work with Walter and co. again. I just sampled the loop. Although, I do take credit for the writing I did on top of it and the adlibs I layered and weaved to make it, just so. For the Spanglish AYNAF Remix I nominate Brenda K Starr and Cory Rooney. Of course, Benny Medina will manage all the contractual negotiations so Mariah doesn't take advantage of their generosity and forgiving hearts, after all the undeserved attacks MC's made on their characters and reputations, thorough out the years. I can see it now. (Sunday 2 November 2014; 18:08)

The origins of Bianca (47,757) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Is this where Bianca was born, between Mariah exhaling: Okay at Tabitha Soren's personal beef with Cindi Berger of PMK and her first interview with Jamie Theakston? Anyone who buys into the ditzy jokesy-the-clown act MC likes to employ sometimes, for laughs and camouflage, and thinks she doesn't turn it off and on at will, is a vapid idiot. That's why I lol at all the artistic, professional and personal advise people can't wait to put out there on the off chance that they can take credit for any future (innevitable) successes. Never mind how well she has done consistently all her life, just by trusting her own gut and intellect. If you don't know Mariah by now, you probably never will. (Sunday 2 November 2014; 17:32)

These are a few of my favourite things, Trois (47,756) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Mariah interviews the best out of anybody I have ever seen or heard. She's the most guileless artist, apart from MJ, at any given time and as far as I know doesn't ban any subject from being brought up or asked about. Yet she is always so poised under pressure, time after time, year after year. I am in awe of her ability to be so completely naked even as her heart is being broken while managing to actually keep her head and all of her humanity and refuse to become jaded by random critic's fangs trying to soil her integrity with their dissonant howls and rotten bites. Manny, thanks so much for posting that classic MTV, Tabitha Soren helmed, interview. It's so candid, well informed and simultaneously lighthearted even as Mariah was being the consummate diplomat about what all had been going on. It's why I believe Mariah meant it when she said it wouldn't have taken that much genuine effort from Tommy for her to go back, well, at least at the top and middle of their separation. It must have been a bitter pill to swallow how easy it was for Tommy to immediately concede to Thalia the simplest of things he wouldn't let Mariah have, even after 4 years of marriage. I think that's when she realised the true depths of his deception. I think it's a great and emotionally healthy choice and all that jazz, if Mariah has forgiven Tommy for what he did to her spirit. But I, don't have to. (Sunday 2 November 2014; 16:04)

Kumbaya my board (47,736) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Mariah always says the creativity of the lambs is unparalleled. I would have to agree 100%. The only ones who come even close to rivalling us lambs, as of late, are The Walter & Tommy Fangurls feat. The Nickelodeons. According to them, we should treat Tommy and Walter more fairly than they themselves have historically treated Mariah. Uhm. With that kind of reasoning Mariah should also reach out to Samantha Cole, Katy Perry, Sandra Bernhardt, Eminem, Kelly Price, Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Ariana Grande, Cameron Diaz, JLo, Ja Rule and Irv Gotti and announce on Wendy Williams, that she wants all of them to be in a remake of AYNAF. Walter will of course produce the song(without Mariah, like he deserves), Nick will direct the (straight to video) short film and Tommy will release the single under his new label: SingSing Records. It's bound to be this years Christmas Hot 100 Stone-Groove-Smash-Hit-Wonder. Oh Lord. (Saturday 1 November 2014; 16:54)

Why Mariah will never work with Walter again (47,710) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End He won't give Mariah her props (a.k.a. R.E.S.P.E.C.T.) for being the principle songwriter on their collaborations. Notice how he dodges even mentioning the melodies and lyrics Mariah wrote herself on songs like AIWFCIY in every interview he gives to this day. He makes it all about his own contributions and will even go as far as to belittle the greatness of the songs just so Mariah's talents can remain unheralded. Wally still makes it so obvious with his shadey comments that he was part of Tommy's clique that kept Mariah in a gilded cage for all those years. Anyone who thinks Walter winning his only 2 Grammys right after his and Mariah's professional and personal association ended, is a coincidence, is a fool. It's been established many times that Mariah is no one's fool twice. I'd much rather Mariah write with Ben Margulies again. In fact, that is officially my Christmas wish for Mariah this year. Just listen to him continue to evade giving Mariah any songwriting credit, like he's still getting payola from Tommy, in this video from last year. (Friday 31 October 2014; 15:59)

Da Brat dishes on Nick and Mariah's divorce (47,643) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End 02:15 Da Brat: She's good with taking care of the babies and raising them. She's got a lot of help, she's doing fine and yes we are still friends. Everything is great and Nick's a great person too. I'm not gonna take nothing away from him because she's one of my best friends. They had their issues, just like every married couple does and they're moving forward, she is and so is he. Diplomacy prevails for now and I'm glad Brat is a lot more Zen in her aura these days. Nick Cannot "The Abandoner" is still dead to me though. (Tuesday 28 October 2014; 17:44)
